I found this video tape at a church thrift store in a free pile, it was sealed. The spine of the tape has a date of July 1, 1994. The tape runs 18 minutes.

Although the video touches on it briefly, the reason behind this production being made is because of a racist illustration which was used in the September 1993 issue of Focus magazine, an internal AT&T publication distributed to employees.

A PDF has been attached to this page that includes an October 4, 1993 Washington Post newspaper article about the incident. It also includes the cover and page in question of the AT&T Focus magazine.

The tape was captured with a Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle and captured as ProRes LT.
